Why isn't Kelly getting more criticism for end of game clock management?

Because we won the game and after kicking the field goal, Arkansas did not have a realistic chance at victory.

Les Miles has lost control over the clock operator

I don't know why he felt the need to burn all the timeouts.

Should've run a running play or at least kneeled it to burn clock and then called a timeout with 3 seconds left.

Because we have stupid fans that can’t realize how much of a les miles move he pulled last night.

Because there were several ways to handle that situation. Probably should have ran once more and then called the TO. Or could’ve kicked on 3rd in case of bad snap. Or could have tried to kneel and center the kick. Etc.
And I think BK was thinking arky might let us score to get the ball back so was calling TOs to get everyone on the same page.


It was kinda sloppy but not Les miles level clock mismanagement

When I logged off last night people were talking about it. When I log on this AM people are still talking about it, presumably non-stop since last night. How much more criticism should he be getting?

Seems like the story of the game

Because it isn’t.

And plenty of tards did throw a hissy fit over this and ran the subject into the ground after the game. We’d all just gotten over it and moved on to the real issues …until now

This is a lousy take.

There were like 50 threads on the SB last night about it and the general consensus was that it was terrible clock management

Because many on this board are too dumb to realize how bad the clock management was.

Shouldn’t have handed the ball off twice and it was so bad we had to try to burn clock with a pass. What if we had a bad snap and JD had to fall on the ball. It was pretty elementary on how to handle the clock and we screwed it up. Game should have ended on fg and we should’ve had 1 TO left.
